"Soulless"...

Still do.

L'Oreal advert. I knew he was bagging soon as he let his hair down. Said to my Dad Erl wants some goal celebration glamour shots here.
 
I think it best describes how we leave opposition fans after we have spanked them yet again.

Jealousy is a terrible trait.
 
They can all get to fuck. When you have fallen as far as we did and returned to these rarefied heights that we could never have dreamed of, you are filled to the brim from the experience, with Soul. Soul is earned wisdom. This club has always had Soul. Buckets of it. They all know it. We know it too. Fuck em all.

"Where woundedness can be refined into beauty a wonderful transfiguration takes place."

It's all bollocks as well we know.
I could accept "soulless" if, like MKD we didn't exist 20 odd years ago but we have a rich, interesting (and traumatic for the fans) history going back 129 years.
We won major trophies before Arsenal and the rags, we won the FA Cup three times before the dippers won it.
We held crowd records at Maine Road and regularly filled the Etihad (or COMS as it was) before the takeover.
Soulless is a word that fans use when they think they're being clever:
All new grounds are deemed "soulless", not because they are, but because they aren't badly re-developed crumbling shitholes.
Fans are soulless if they support successful teams but fans of lower division team are "real fans". That's utter shite; fans who go to games are real fans whoever they support.
And there was nothing "soulless" about the atmosphere last night.
And we have one of the best away followings in the country and have always had this.
